2014 Pinot Noir

This Pinot Noir is a blend of all of our vineyard sources throughout Oregon and is representative of one of Oregon's great vintages. Aromatics suggest brambly cane berries and Bing cherries accented by some subtle notes of cinnamon and clove. The palate carries these aromas on and compliments them with lively acidity and just a hint of oak sweetness. The mouthfeel is round and pleasant and yields some further depth suggesting Morello cherries and nutmeg. The finish lingers with soft, silky tannins and leaves an aftertaste of sweet red and black fruits and Christmas spice.

2015 Pinot Gris

The entry is bright, juicy and full of white stone fruit flavors complimented by sweet lemon curd and a hint of pineapple. The pronounced acidity balances the somewhat tropical sweetness to deliver a lengthy and elegant palate that gives the sensory perception of being quite dry. The wine pairs marvelously with a diverse selection of foods but also performs beautifully on its own as an aperitif.
